{ Top 5 Trend Alert Spring/Summer 2013 }

New York Fashion Week has passed and now the speculation begins. So many looks and so many trends and I am very excited to see them in the stores. Now, the big question is: what will make it to the streets for Spring/Summer 2013? I am not an expert or anything, but I kind of have my top 5 trends and "hopes" that some of these fabulous looks will make it to the most popular stores. Here are my top 5 picks for Spring/Summer 2013.

1. Black and White, or White and Black - I saw this color combination everywhere on the runway. With a mix of patterns, florals, stripes and geometric prints. A fantastic combination of chic, classic and modern. BW and WB is coming on strong for Spring/Summer 2013.

2. Prints -How can you not love this trend. It was already a big hit back in 2012 and it is coming back for next Spring. I kind of hesitated myself in embracing this trend, but at the end I surrendered. I LOVE the bold prints of Proenza Schouler.

3. Leather -One of the hottest trends for this Fall is leather and it looks like this trend will survive all the way to Spring. New York Fashion Week had so many leather looks.Classic, modern and quirky ones (LOL). I really want one for my wardrobe.

4. Everything White - this is a definite must have - White maxi dresses, pants and shirts; you choose. There are so many options. White outfits were present in almost every single runway show during NYFW. I say Bravo!!

5. Release the BEAST - these "gladiator" sandals are to die for. If you are tired of flats, which have been the trend for the last few years; go ahead and spice things up. These sandals are just FANTASTIC! I am madly in love with them! I think this is the most exciting trend, which I really want to try next spring.
